Picked this up on Heritage's weekly auction. Been looking for an original strike (restrikes are available) with nice eye appeal, and saw this one. The only element I like less is the holder alignment by our hosts.

1907-KB. Hungary. Kremnitz mint. Emperor Franz Joseph I (1848-1916) 5 Korona. 36.1mm, 23.94gr. DAV-124. Huszar: 2214: Her 779. Jaeger: 416. KM-489. Mintage: 300,000. Commemorative issue for the 40th anniversary of coronation. Obv: Laureate bust of Franz Joseph I right. Rev: Coronation scene at Buda, showing kneeled Emperor, being coronated by an Archibishop inside church. Attractive, deep envelope toning. This is an original striking. PCGS MS-63.
